I've just worked out that you can achieve whatever you want - this must be what
I'd done in a previous installation - by defining a new theme under Settings ->
Configure KMail - > Appearance -> Message List ->  Configure -> Appearance. 
This includes having anything, other than Subject, in the first column.

Hi Laurent, 

Ideally, I'd like to have tags displayed in the first column, but if I
right-click the top of the message list, and check Important and/or Action, I
can't drag those extra columns to the left.  I see that there's a Read/Unread
icon on the very left-hand side, which seems to be part of the Subject column,
but I can't work out how to add other tags to this ( although I could swear I
succeeded with a previous installation of KMail).  I tried the Message - Mark
Message menu, but this is confusing - why is the functionality different for
different tags, i.e. a menu item for 'Mark Message as Unread' but a checkbox
for 'Remove Important Mark'? - and doesn't appear to have any effect.  

Many thanks and regards.

KMail 6.0.1 (24.02.1)

Thank you for the fast reply.
I don't quite see how having the subject in the first column is coupled to
supporting message threads. I added another example from Gnome Revolution which
demonstrates how it could look like.
Of course, having robust defaults is good and I don't want to convince you to
change these.
I was just hoping for more customizability in this regard and thought it could
be possible without too much effort or additional complexity.

We put it in first column because we have support for thread message.
=> it will be wierd if we change it.
by default it's better to show subject in first column
